Right. So the JNI C/C++ RTL functions run on a zIIP but as I thought 
DFSORT running in a spawned process does not. DFSORT could have been 
executed with a simple link
to the program so I'm guessing that spawning a process was a design 
feature so it wouldn't run on a zIIP?



The JZOS DFSORT wrapper spawns DFSORT in a separate process, which is not
part of the JVM and is therefore not zIIP eligible.

I'm guessing the answer is no judging by the fact that JZOS spawns a
jdfsort UNIX process to do the sort and if it did everybody would just
write Java wrappers to
sort data sets thus reducing the cost of running DFSORT.

JZOS does have native code (not byte code) that is part of the JVM which is
zIIP eligible.

The JZOS DFSORT wrapper spawns DFSORT in a separate process, which is not
part of the JVM and is therefore not zIIP eligible.
